Hi guys (and maybe even girls)

I am new to Pure basic, but not to basic. I have a small problem
with SoundInit. It keeps says Incorrect number of parameters.
But I us it as writen in the helpfile !!!
Do I really have to have Directx 7 installed or is a later version
also good. Because I used to work under 8.0 and my programs worked.
But lately nothing seems to work anymore.

Whats wrong...

InitSound(), not SoundInit().
Use it without parameter.

Use DX7+ -> so DX8 is fine...

That's what I wanted to say, InitSound().
I use then InitSound(6) because I have 6 samples i want to
play. But it wouldn't even get to the loading of the samples.
see code

; Init sprites
If InitSprite() = 0
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't open DirectX 7 Or later", 0)
End
EndIf

; Init Keyboard
If InitKeyboard() = 0
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't open DirectX 7 Or later", 0)
End
EndIf
InitSound(6)
LoadSound(1,"data\open.wav")
LoadSound(2,"data\exo1.wav")
LoadSound(3,"data\logoff.wav")
LoadSound(4,"data\menuclick.wav")
LoadSound(5,"data\m_funk.wav")

PlaySound(5,1)

I also tried the source below, a standard demo listing but that one
gives me the same error as above.

; ------------------------------------------------------------
; PureBasic - Sound example file
; (c) 2001 - Fantaisie Software
;------------------------------------------------------------


If InitSound() = 0
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't open DirectX 7 or no sound card is available", 0)
End
EndIf

SoundFileName$ = OpenFileRequester("Choose a .wav file", "", "Wave files|*.wav",0)
If SoundFileName$
If LoadSound(0, SoundFileName$)
PlaySound(0,1)
MessageRequester("Sound", "Playing the sound (loop)..."+Chr(10)+"Click to quit..", 0)
Else
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't load the sound.", 0)
EndIf
EndIf
End

Works fine for me like it is.

Do you use the Demo 3.00 or Registered 3.20 ??
Maybe a problem with your sound driver ??

I have the 3.00 demo version, I just want to try this basic out...
I also tried it on the machine at work but the same problem over there so it isn't my machine...
